Prayers for Chapel Hill

Below is a press release I did as soon as I found out. It was sent to NZ and International media and was completely ignored

إِنَّا لِلّهِ وَإِنَّـا إِلَيْهِ رَاجِعونَ‎

Na te Atua I homai, Na te Atua ano e tango.

Ka tangi te ngakau mo te tokotoru I puhia, kei Amerika. No Ngai Iharaima katoa ratou.

Ka tuku aroha ki nga whanau pani, I raro I te kapua o te pouriuri, I roto I te mamae.

Ki ahau nei, kaore I kore, he ‘tukino mauahara’ tenei.

Ka tangi te ngakau mo nga hunga katoa, ki te ao whanui e mate penei ai.

Ko te mea noaiho hei whakapiki ano te hari, ko taua mohiotanga, hei te Ra Whakawa, te Ra o te Orangatonutanga, ka whiwhi taatou katou te Utu mai i te Atua Kaharawa, moo u matou mahi katoa, ki runga I te mata o te whenua.

I express profound sadness over the 3 who were shot in America. They are Muslim.

My love goes out to the grieving families who must be overcome with sadness at this time.

To me, there is no doubt that this was a dreadful hate crime.

I mourn for all who die like this across the earth.

The only consolation is the sacred knowledge of the Day of Resurrection and Judgement, whereby all shall receive JUST Consequences for all actions on Earth, and such justice can only be administered by Almighty God.

Je suis Maori, je suis musulman.

Je crois en l'amour, la paix et la compassion.

Je envoie mon amour pour le peuple de Paris en ce moment. Mes prières montent Allah Tout-Puissant pour eux, leurs moyens de subsistance et de leurs familles.

Amour surmonte tout.

Ce est mon message à cette époque.

I am Maori, I am Muslim.

I believe in Love, Peace and Compassion.

I send my love for the people of Paris at this time. My prayers ascend Almighty Allah for their sakes, their livelihoods and their families.

Love overcomes all.

This is my message at this time.

Ka whakapono matou o Ngai Iharaima ki nga matapono o te Aroha, te Rangimarie me te Ngakau nui.

I tenei wa Pouri, ka tukuna matou o matou aroha ki nga whanau kei Paris.

Kua taki, kua tukuna nga karakia ki a Allah mo ratou, mo a ratou oranga, mo a ratou whanau hoki.

He kaha ake te Aroha, I nga mea katoa.

Koinei ou matou karere I tenei wa.
